Evie

I have just completed a Level 3 National Diploma in Equine Management at Plumpton College, where I also completed my BHS ride and road safety; as well as recently passing my Level 2 BHS Ride and Lunge.

I have worked at many riding schools and livery yards around the West Sussex area. As well as working for an Eventer about a year ago alongside college for work experience which meant I got to ride her top horses up the gallops, schooling and jumping up to around 90cm as well as being her groom at competitions. At the livery yard I would school or hack at least one horse a day alongside all the general yard duties. Occasionally I would get to lunge too, which I am more than capable of doing. I've been riding since I was nine and just fell in love with it. I never mind getting my hands dirty and don't mind weather I ride or not.

Currently, I have been working at a high standard, with a positive attitude to all the work I do. I am a happy and fun person to have around the yard but can be shy at first. I have work in busy conditions constantly so am used to the pressure and managing my time correctly. I always like to have some form of plan for my day as I find this easier if I fully know what I'm doing and when. I always turn out to a high standard weather it's for a show or a normal yard day.

I have hacked, schooled and jumped to around 90cm. I have never hunted, raced or done polo but this all intrigues me and I'd love to give it all a go. I've ridden young ex-racers, livery horses, schoolmasters and eventers. I have never backed or started a horse but again I'd love to be given the chance. At livery yards I have been put on the small ponies sometimes to improve their way of going for the kids there.

Currently I have never competed but have been to shows as a groom.
